Abstract
This study analyzes the effects of time-flexible work (flexible working system and reduced working hours during childcare) on job satisfaction and work-family balance satisfaction. According to the resource theory, time-flexible work has a positive effect on workers' lives by allowing them to flexibly allocate time and energy. On the other hand, according to the self-control theory, time flexibility has a negative effect on workers' lives by increasing the tasks they have to do at home. The result shows that the flexible working system increases job satisfaction and work-family balance satisfaction. The result also shows that the reduced working hours for childrearing do not have a significant effect on job satisfaction while increasing work-family balance satisfaction. It is interpreted that the work-family balance satisfaction of workers with young children is significantly high, but this does not lead to job satisfaction.
